Kind of sleepers, although I don't know how much longer the first one will stay under-the-radar.

Oregon TE/RB Colt Lyerla 6'5" 246 Sophomore

His NFL position is definitely TE but the Ducks have actually lined up the 6'5" Lyerla at halfback and given him the ball. He's like a faster, more athletic Gronkowski. He was a stud LB in high school.

Not that anyone from ASU's defense should be looked at tonight but I like what I've seen all year from ASU safety Chris Young.

Arizona State Chris Young SS 6'0" 232 Junior

I first noticed Young two years ago as a Freshman at Arizona Western CC. USC was high on Jesse Williams (Alabama), Aaron Douglas (Alabama*died of a drug overdose), and Isaiah Wiley (USC) but I told the guy from WeAreSC that besides Williams, Young was the most impressive player on the field. As a sophomore, he was named the Western States Football League Defensive Player of the Year, the Arizona Community College Athletic Conference Co-Defensive Player of the Year and a first team All-American after racking up 111 tackles (30 for loss), 8.5 sacks, five fumble recoveries, four forced fumbles, two interceptions and six defensive touchdowns.

He's a strong safety only but he's very physical and doesn't get lost or hurt his team in coverage. Mid to late round type player.
